Back to Aurora Borealis Block

The Aurora Borealis block is out again... see this post... I put it in a tin (good for porting) along with it's threads and will keep at it till finished this time. In my "cleaning" I found this unfinished postcard depicting the photo. one of my favorite places on earth. Another good thing to finish.

A pretty uneventful day. Although the sun was out, not much snow melted. I think we're loosing more at earth level than off the actual surface however my walking stick is still measuring 3 feet in spots. We're getting longer days now as the sun climbs closer into the northern hemisphere. I am so thankful for that change !!! I believe daylight savings time will be happening in about a month. Early this year, just like Easter.

I had my employment physical today and made a pot of Congressional Bean Soup with some ham. Don't ask me why it's called that. If any one knows the recipe and the reason for the name, please let me know. Which reminds me...I got gasoline while I was in town. Citgo had it for a $3.22 a gallon. I drove 5 miles to the Indian Store (owned by the Keweenaw Ojibway Tribe) and payed $2.97. A whopping 25 cent difference! Hmmm, maybe I just answered my own question about the Congressional Bean name . LOL

Till the next time... Jane
